Three teachers whose salaries are funded by the Emergency Employment Act began in October to teacd classes in facilities prowled by local churciies. An enrollment of 120 fivc-ycar-olds istaughlbyKarenWalt- ers at the Church of Cod, Linda K.

Olson at the Methodist Church andCarolA.Frasei at the First United Presbyterian Ciruicli. Parents who responded to a survey imrc. ducing the kindergarten program were sent letters of application. All applicants were accepted. "We've all lec-n araazel at (lie progress they've made," reported Mrs Kraser.

"I can see them growing, learning anil understanding." "It's not itiat we want to make them so bright," st.e added. "It's just that we want them to learn how to get along with other people and how to think." Mrs. Fraser begins her morning class at 0 a.m., continuing until 11:30. The session is conducted from 12:30 to 3 ILIII. Although attendance is not compulsory, the moinir.g class usually has a full attendance of 20 students, while the afternoon session averages from 1C to 20.

Parents will be contacted if attendance is sporadic, sl.e explained, adding that if he family no longer is interested, another child then iray be enrolled. The day begins with one half hour of fro." 1 activity, followed by a lesson. After a short recess--outdoors, if the weather is good-- tlie children are served refreshments. The remainder of the day is devoted to story-time, another lesson and one half hour of music ar.d sharing. A loosely organized routine is needed not only by teacher, kit by Itic children as well, Mrs.

Fraser said. -'They need to know what conies after." During the 30-minnte "free'' time allowed the children when they first arrive, they may amuse themselves with any of activities provided for them through tlie program. Forms of constructive entertainment available include various types of building blocks, manipulative toys, a play kitchen, dolls, painting easels and a "special" drawer which teacher keeps stocked with paper shapes, crayons, ar.d an assortment of writing and drawing materials. Lessons are personalized for the children and many consist of listening and learning games rather than a formalized plan. "If yon call it a game, they'll like it," Mrs.

Kraser smiled. "They love topaint- tliey're just real happy to be here. 1 Supplies are abundant and well-balanced, Mrs. Fraser feels. "We have so man) things," she said, describing sets of books cisid corresponding pictures which the teachers obtain from the Migrant Education Resource Center and trade among themselves.

Not all of the kindergartens serve refreshments, Mrs. Fraser said, but their pupils arc provided with cookies or graham crackers and punch by women of the chtirch. The primary ptipose of this, she explained, is to acquaint the children with Ijbie manners and to develop social ease. While teacher prepares the snack, each child sits vvitli his or her head resting on the tai.lc-- the only rest period during the day, The kids are ready for a rest by this time, she explained, and iccidents arc few- ei if little hands are under theirlieadswhile punch is being poured.

"They can do this at this age; they don't to ho the crayons, please," and "I need a fat brown-- ciees anyone l-aveafalbrown 1 are comments heard as each child attempts to portray his interpretation of the- story just told by teacher. Control of a pencil or crayon is not an easily attained aclu'cvemt-'it fur children of this age, their teacher explained. Even drawing pictures of geometric shapes from symbols pinned on th' 1 wall is difficult for them and takes concentration and practice. Because of the different races represented aracng the children, "understanding of the linguage is a barrier at limes," according to the tear.iir-r, "but we're breaking it. A sir.ile helps." Members of tho church's women's association assist at art sessions, handicraft, at snack time and if a child special attention.

"I think the program is really working out well," Mrs. Fraser said. Proposed future projects include field trips, scienlificexperi- ments and experience chart. Parent- leaeher conferences also will be conducted at specified periods tluoughout the year. A grading sheet will list eacli child's accomplishments as satisfactory or unsatisfactory, and will be based on such areas as oral language, listening ability and reading and writing skills.

Mrs. Fraser, who moved wiibhcrlnisband from Pennsylvania in August, previously was hired as a substitute teacher at Roosevelt Elementary School.
